● Encryption Password
• It is necessary to set a password during the export process because data such as the password of the address book set by
the user are encrypted when the DCM file is exported/imported.
• The password must consist of 32 or less ASCII characters. A password exceeding 32 characters cannot be entered.
• If a wrong password is entered at import, the encrypted setting values cannot be decoded, and the import of the setting
values end with an error.
• It is necessary to specify a password even when the data to be exported does not contain any data to be encrypted. However,
in the case of export from service mode, it is not necessary to enter the password, and the password (28282828) is entered
automatically.
■ Specifications Related to Department ID Management
• Department ID information is exported only when the Department ID management setting is enabled.Regardless of the state
of the department ID management setting, the state of department ID management (enabled/disabled) and the system
administrator information are exported. The department ID counter is not exported.
• When importing department ID information, the import process differs depending on the combination of the department ID
set in the host machine and the department ID set in the data to be imported.
"ID_1" has been set in the data to be impor-
ted.
"ID_1" has not been set in the data to be im-
ported.
Department ID information has not been set
in the data to be imported.
